For businesses moving goods between Great Britain and Northern Ireland, navigating trade post-Brexit can still feel complex. While the Windsor Framework was designed to make trade within the UK internal market easier, many businesses are still unclear on how it works in practice, what role TSS and the UK Internal Market Scheme (UKIMS) play, and when a full import entry may be the better option. The right approach depends on your business, your products, and the nature of your supply chain. In our latest blog, our Associate Director of Customs & Compliance, Chris Roome MCIEx, breaks down the terminology so that you can trade with Northern Ireland with confidence.

Q4 is fast approaching, and this year we expect air freight capacity to be even tighter than usual. A combination of Golden Week (1-7 October), continued growth in e-commerce demand, and ongoing geopolitical disruption is expected to place additional pressure across the sector.

If you have critical stock still to move, now is the time to secure capacity before the market becomes constrained. In our latest blog, Sarah-Jane Powell, Associate Director of Aviate, explores why peak season may be tighter than expected in 2026, and shares practical steps businesses can take to prepare.
